| Hi Dave,
I've seen Drakkhen running and have actually played alittle bit of
this game (very little bit). I was very impressed with the scrolling of
the graphics and the graphics themselves were pretty good. Where this
game lacks is in playability. IMO it simply didn't have much to it
after you got over being WOWed by the graphics and scrolling. A friend
of mine is the one who bought it, and I believe he has never finished
it. The game seemed to deadend pretty quickly. Then again maybe we just
didn't invest enough time into it. He may be willing to sell it to you (in
the orignal box with all documentation), if you're interested send me
E-mail and I'll check into it.

| Hello,
I posted a note about 3 months ago, but got little attention so it was
deleted. I've had DRAKKHEN for about 6 months and played it very
little. This is however due to the complexity of the game and not its
lacking any play-ability. The game is on the level of Dungeon Master,
in that the play mechanics seem to have been designed for two players
and not one :). The character generation is DND style, but limits you
greatly to only 3 rolls per character (you get 4); and its terribly
hard to get 4 good characters. The scrolling/graphics are GREAT. BUT,
and this is a big one, there are MANY unexpected places you'll die
FAST. And there are very difficult 'puzzles' to figure out. If you'd
like more information (or even a photocopy of the manuals to brouse
thru-to get an idea of the game-play) send me email (ZEKE::DUDMAN).
I'd give the game a 9 of 10.
Jeff
